      Nonsense. How could they ‘choose to homeschool’ if that would mean they couldn’t afford to feed their children?

      And don’t say ‘welfare’ again. Florida is a welfare to work state, that means you can only be on it for a limited time while you look for a job.

          Again, some people can’t make that choice. Because it isn’t always a choice. You say you don’t think anyone can homeschool, but you keep talking as if they can. Unless everyone can homeschool, there are two tiers because some people are literally unable to access those funds. They do not have that choice to make. So no, they aren’t available to all parents since they aren’t available to poor single mothers working multiple jobs. They cannot make the choice to homeschool no matter how much you think they have that option available to them.
